Our Editorial Review
Product Description Award-winning ImagiBRICKS Giant Building Blocks are an enduring classic that offer endless play possibilities because they are versatile (build with them, jump over them, crash into them) and safe. Constructed of lightweight corrugated cardboard, if the blocks tumble, no one gets hurt! The blocks are printed with non-toxic inks and with their water-resistant coating are strong and durable for years of creative play. Because Imagibricks are unit blocks, they can even be used to teach basic math skills. Adult assembly required 40pc set includes * 8 large red blocks (12 x 6 x 3); * 8 medium yellow blocks (6 x 6 x 3); * 24 small blue blocks (6 x 3 x 3) Ages 18 mos.+ Awards: Dr Toy Best Classic Toy 2001
Teacher Review Little ones with a knack for building and creative play will be drawn to these lightweight and durable cardboard building blocks. A staple item in many preschools, this set can spark endless imaginative play as children build large, life-size structures. Builders practice mathematical skills as they add the number of blocks stacked on top of each other, and the various-sized blocks can facilitate a conceptual understanding of fractions. When kids are developmentally ready, parents can encourage them to discover that one large red block is the same size as two medium yellow blocks or four small blue blocks. Made from 50 percent recycled cardboard, the blocks have a smooth, water-resistant coating that's easy to clean. These blocks won a Parents' Choice Classic Award and a Dr. Toy Classic Award. One word of caution: Make sure there's enough storage space to hold all 40 blocks once assembled. --Lauren Bernard, mother and elementary school teacher

For a little older child. Posted 13 May 2007
I got these for my daughter - 20mos - and feel she'll like them more when she's just a little older. I didn't realize you had to put them together yourself and just how much room they take up when put together. They're great for the imagination, but I think because I am the one that put them together, they aren't folded tightly and don't necessarily stay stacked on top of each other well. But I would recommend them for others, just be sure to find some space for them.
great fun!! Posted 14 March 2007

Big Blocks encourage creativity Posted 22 February 2007
Twenty years ago my own kids had a set of those blocks and every day started like this: "Okay, this is a school bus and I be the driver and you be the bad kid," or "Okay, we're in a shoe store and I be the lady buying shoes and you sell them." I think that went on practically til middle school. Now I bought a set for my granddaughter and the very next day she had built a roadway and was driving cars on it.
Good quality & fun Posted 15 February 2007
We got this for our two year old last X-mas and my husband was able to put together all the blocks by himself in less than an hour. They're very durable and lots of fun for all of us. I build a tower and Taylor loves knocking it down
great product! Posted 11 January 2007
The blocks come in flat cardboard sheets and take a little time to put together, and the smaller blocks are a little bit of a hassle to put together. For some reason there is a large number of the smallest blocks and not as many of the larger blocks, this set would be more complete if there were equal amounts of all sizes. The blocks are very durable once assembled.
